Daily Bible Reading – June 2021, God’s Word of Hopeનમૂનો

June 5

Introduction

This letter was most likely written to Christians scattered across the northern part of Asia Minor. They are told that they may have to face suffering because of their faith. They are reminded that God has chosen them, and they are encouraged to live holy lives and to be filled with a living hope because of Jesus’s resurrection from the dead.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

1 Peter 1:1-25

Today’s Key Verse:  1 Peter 1:3

Let us give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! Because of his great mercy he gave us new life by raising Jesus Christ from death. This fills us with a living hope.

Reflect

This passage offers assurance of God’s saving love and encourages believers to live as God’s holy people, even in the face of suffering. Are there situations that make it difficult for you to live faithfully? How does suffering impact your faith? How does God provide you with hope in times of trial?

Pray

Holy, gracious, and merciful God, even in times of challenge and suffering, you call me to live as your faithful disciple. Fill me with a living hope and strengthen my spirit, O Lord, that I may ever trust in you and proclaim the Good News of your love and salvation. Amen.
